Today has The Toon heading off to miseryside to take on The Red Scousers at Anfield.
NUFC's record across there is diabolical with one win, two draws and 15 losses in the last eighteen played. Liverpool who are in no great form this season must be rubbing their hands at the prospect of a visit from The Toon. That said now would be the perfect opportunity to break that run of results.
According to various reports this morning Demba Ba has a 75% chance of playing or 50 - 50 depending on what you read in the media.
Not sure APee will have him on from the start, however if he is fit to play I expect him to come off the bench at some point in the afternoon's affair. It will be interesting to see if our manager goes with one up front (Cisse or Shola) and five in midfield.
Also doing the rounds are changes in defence with Saylor coming in for Williamson and Anita taking up the right back role from Simpson. I'm okay with Saylor returning, but feel Danny (unless he is injured) has done nothing wrong so should retain his place in the starting line up.
Something like this should be sufficient to get us a result in my opinion....
KRUL
SIMPSON, SAYLOR, COLO, SANTON
